About

One person.
Real craftsmanship.

I'm Michael Fisher, the solo developer behind Staticfish. No account managers, no junior developers — just me building your website with care and attention.
Why I started

Too many small businesses overpay for websites that are slow, hard to update, and expensive to maintain.

I've seen too many small businesses overpay for websites that are slow, hard to update, and expensive to maintain. They get locked into contracts for things they don't need.

I started Staticfish to offer something simpler: clear business websites, clear pricing, and direct communication with the person building the work. Alongside that, I also build SaaS MVPs for founders who need a real first product.

How I work

My principles.

01

Built for Speed

Every site I build loads fast. I focus on performance because your visitors won't wait around.

02

Simple & Reliable

I use modern tools with fewer moving parts. Less to go wrong means less to worry about.

03

Clear Pricing

One price upfront. Set monthly fee. No hourly billing, no surprise charges.

Founder & Developer

I've spent years building everything from straightforward websites to SaaS products and more involved software builds. Staticfish is positioned mainly around business websites, but SaaS MVP work is still a real specialism for me when the right project comes along.
